Joe captivated both adults and kids with his spellbound performances! He has a great sense of humor and was able to keep kids entertained throughout the show! Glad that we booked him:)
Children’s Party Entertainment
Joe performed last night at our school event, I did not know what kind of crowd we would have as far as size or age group and he did an amazing job. He brought a number of different illusions and ideas so he could be flexible and read the crowd, everything turned out a great success. And the best part is, we can just book him again next year because his show is different every time!

Joe Black’s Magic Show at Bear Festival was fantastic! Attendance was great for our size community. Joe was engaging with both the children and the parents. He was also skilled, funny, and flexible about the location which we changed due to the need for shade for the audience. If we have the opportunity we would definitely work with Joe again.

At the recent party, Joe proved to be a remarkable magician who captivated both adults and children with his jokes and tricks. His performance was highly entertaining, leaving the entire audience laughing and impressed. The guests were particularly pleased with Joe's act, and there is already interest in booking him for future events.
Everyone loved Joe Black’s magic show for our 6 year old birthday party, even the adults were entertained. Joe is really great about including the kids and adults into his magic routine. Phrases like “that’s amazing!” And “this is the best birthday party I’ve ever been to!” were said. Joe was very talented and professional.
We were impressed with tricks we had not seen before
We felt we made a great decision with hiring Joe back for our sons birthday party

Hired Joe as a party hypnotists for my wife's birthday celebration, he was fantastic! He tailored the skits to my preferences beforehand, was communicative, showed up on time, even helped set up! The show was fantastic and had us all laughing and clapping throughout. Many great memories from just the one night that I'm sure our friend group will be chatting about for years to come. Defs worth.

Joe put on a great interactive show for a party of 30 that was fun entertainment for kids and adults alike. Every kid that was willing to come to the stage got to experience and "assist" in an illusion. He has good wit and a bunch of well executed tricks, many I have no idea what method he used. More importantly he was very prompt in his responses before the show and punctual to arrive. He was accommodating and flexible as well. I would hire him again.

I was lucky enough to book Joe last minute for my nephews’ birthday party. He made the entire process much easier than I had anticipated and was very flexible with the location of the show and the type of magic he performed based on the young crowd. He was very professional and friendly and everybody loved the show. Absolutely would hire Joe again.

Response from Joe Black:
Thank you so much Christina! You guys were a thrill to perform for!
Everyone in our party loved the performance of Joe Black. He was great and had the attention of a group of 6 y.o. for the whole hour! The best review was by one of the kids who shouted: "you're the magician god!!!" There's not much I can add to that.
It was easy to plan for our event, Joe arrived early to set up. Everything went very smooth.

Joe Black did a great job at entertaining the children with whimsical and traditional illusions. My son had the so much fun trying to figure out his tricks and Joe did a great job keeping him focused. This was the most stress free birthday party I have hosted yet. My kiddo is seven years old but we had mixed ages and seven kids.
Magician
Joe was very communicative, super friendly and totally adaptable to our birthday gathering of 15 people or so.. He is unpretentious and clearly loves what he does, so his natural enthusiasm & talent won everyone over really quickly and it was a terrific show. Highly recommended !

Joe Black "s was a good chance for the little ones in school to see a magician in real life. We had a Harry Potter play, put on by the kids, but nothing like his. My daughter didn't stop doing magic for days.
Magician
We had Joe Black couple of days back for my Daughters Birthday party. He entertained 30 kids and 50 adults with his great illusions. The tricks were classic but his witty speech was making them more exciting.
Kids loved to watch him doing MaGic! Also Adults were engaged in watching his tricks.
We were very happy to have him for the party.

Joe was great. Everybody enjoyed the strolling magic show and loved they hypnosis show. We all had a great time and laughed a lot. We had really good feed back from everybody at our party. And got many laughs around the office for several days after

My client was very happy with the show. I will be booking Joe for future shows. He's talented and easy to work with. A great combination
– Chuck W
Joe Black was amazing. All of the kids had a wonderful evening and were enthralled. He showed a great balance of engaging and enthralling the kids without losing control of the kids. Absolutely fantastic. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to friends
– Kevin H
Joe Black performed for a birthday party for my daughter, and I could not be more pleased. He was talented, professional, and did a great job handling some little-miss-know-it-alls who loved to shout out how they thought the tricks were done. The tricks were mostly classics I'd seen done before, but the execution was great, and all of us (both kids and adults) were thrilled for the full hour. He used plenty of humor and had a great attitude
– Wendy C
Joe came to our school to perform at our talent show cast party and the kids loved him. They didn't know in advance that there would be a hypnotist and some of them were unsure about what would happen or whether they'd believe. The left that night with stories and memories that won't be forgotten. Thank you to Joe for helping out our newly developed Drama Program and for putting on such a great performance. We'll definitely be giving him a call again in the future when our school is in need of his talent.
